Please Handle With Care // She's A Delicate Soul, She's A Breath Of Fresh Air

Please handle with care // She's a delicate soul, she's a breath of fresh air

Beautifully sad song by Jacob. He has such a talent for writing simple but super poetic songs. His strength is in the simplicity of this song and video, because that's where the emotion shines through the most for him. He's a severely underrated talent.

You’re the antidote to everything except for me // A constellation of tears on your lashes // Burn everything you love then burn the ashes

Love this song from Fall Out Boy! Their songs always have such great energy, and this one is no different. I like that this one was a little more intense than their songs before it. The musicianship is awesome as always, and Pete’s voice sounds great in this song!

I need a saving grace // A hiding place // I don’t have forever or time to waste

My favorite song by the Band Perry. I love the lyrics of this song, and I like how it’s a little more reminiscent of the self titled era TBP, whereas Pioneer era TBP was a lot bigger in sound. I love the musicianship in this song, as well as Kimberly’s raspy voice. I’m excited to see where their new music is heading.

I’m too sick for Heaven, far too sweet to go to Hell // These broken pieces just don’t fit together well

This is such a cool song from Shannon Taylor!  I love the vibe, and it’s super catchy as well.  This song manages to be dark and light at the same time, which is very fitting, since she is fighting her inner demons in this song.  I like that the sound is a lot lighter than the video would make you believe as well. 

I will be your guardian when all is crumbling // I steady your hand

My favorite Fray song ever.  I love the piano in this song, and he has so much emotion in his voice throughout. These lyrics are so beautiful and almost pure, which is a stark contrast from Isaac’s powerful and almost slurring voice. 

Sticks and stones may break my bones // But your words break my heart // I’m not as strong as you think I am // I’m no Superman

Love this version of Superman by Dalton Rapattoni.  This is a song that he wrote for his former band IM5 with one of the other members Will Jay. This is such a beautiful version, and you can tell that he feels every word that he wrote so deeply.  I actually like this version a lot better than the original.
